Where Is My Shadow Poem by Gajanan Mishra

Where is my shadow
I am searching it
Day and night
With light
And also without light.
My shadow has left me
Since long and
I am searching it,
You are cooperating
In the search, no doubt.
Let me treat you
My great partner.
Let me tell you
Something that is secret
And that needs to
Kept within
Between we two.
The object is not to
Do any wrong
To anyone here
But to stay safe.
But where is my shadow,
It is the important question
That is still there
With us both.
And I accept it
A challenge for our
Own existence.
Where is my shadow
Let it throw
And come inside my room,
Where I keep myself busy
For nothing.
But what use you asked
And I remain silent,
I find no words
Without my shadow.
I need some other one to
Talk and to express
Freely my feelings
And I know
Shadow is intolerable.
